Lost All Meaning

I created this recording in my home studio and it is on my self-produced EP 'The Music of Dana-Marie Vol. 1' released July 2009. This track can be purchased in the MP3 Store.

This song is the sister of my other new song 'The Struggle to Forgive". I wrote this song a few weeks afterwards. I say it is the 'sister' because it is about the same turmoil (please read my description of The Struggle to Forgive). Lost All Meaning represents the continuation of this hard journey and is a marker on the road for the moment that I hit rock bottom in my turmoil. I know it's depressing, but this song was born in the moment that I really did feel for the first time in my life that there was no sense in believing in good anymore. You'll find that the song is similar to its 'sister' in that it is also in 3-4 time, like a waltz. I find this happens a lot, that the songs which share the same story/feeling tend to have a similar structure when they come out of me.

LYRICS
the night lifts up the shade
and i feel myself to fade
the stars circle the earth
and I don't know anything but hurt

and everyday I'm wandering away
I do not remember the way I came

and everyday I'm falling away
and I don't know how to explain

how I'm going to fix this
cause I don't think I know how

the water baffles the brook
the trees confuse the sky

and you and I
stand here and watch the wind blow us around
and we don't want to ask why
or where we're going or where we're falling
or where we're going to land

and I don't think I know how
I'm going to fix this

give me a reason to believe in good
give me some sign that everything be fine
cause I have lost all meaning
I have lost all my sense in believing
